About Us

My Clients

Ignite Intelligence is the business mentor New Zealand company owners call when they require a little, or a lot, of assistance and support to grow and succeed in business. They come to me for my business advisory, mentoring and coaching services because they know they work and that they can rely on my skills, discretion and experience.

From companies going through rapid growth to companies desperate to see some improvement and profits, Ignite Intelligence can assist every step of the way.

Perhaps you need the wisdom and support of a mentor you can go to with your problems and who can listen and offer appropriate guidance and advice.

Or, you may require a business coach who can help you harness and maximise your existing skills, knowledge and experience to enable you to perform at your full potential, confidently and with increased clarity and focus.

Then too, you may simply require the objective perspective and insight of a business advisor who brings their own expertise to your table.

Successful leaders recognise the need to keep working on their business and to keep learning new and better ways to ensure consistent, profitable growth.

Perhaps all that is required is that little extra effort, that thoughtful insight or that objective view of a troublesome situation. When help is needed or that bit of expertise is not readily available in-house, the business mentor New Zealand company owners and CEOs will call to make that difference is Ignite Intelligence.

Whether you are looking for an advisor or mentor or require business coaching, you can be absolutely sure that I will be totally committed to your success.

Getting Started

What is it that you don’t know about running your business? Let’s find out together.

Who I Am

I am passionate about transforming the lives of business owners, showing them the best-in-class tools they need so they can enjoy the best of both worlds: running a phenomenal company while still having the time to live life fully.

Over the last four years, I have been running a successful business consultancy, helping business owners to grow revenues profitably and sustainably.

I started my first business in my mid-twenties, quickly building a sole trader IT consultancy into a Top 10 business, with clients in over 50 countries. My team and I often dealt with mission-critical systems and large government contracts. Later, I went on to sell this firm to a multinational organisation.

After running a large multinational IT firm, I then found himself living off-grid in a third world country.

My focus was on providing aid, financial support and advice to people struggling to raise their heads above the whirlwind of daily life; something many business owners around the world appreciate first hand.

Recently, I specialised in the not-for-profit sector, where success is measured not in terms of profit but in lives saved and people helped. While it does come with unique challenges, there are common themes with the regular business milieu: employee/volunteer engagement, performance outcomes, and, importantly, cash flow.

With over 25 years of experience in a wide range of businesses, including SMEs, multinationals, governments and NGOs, I am uniquely and ideally qualified to improve your brand, your success and your way of life.

Qualifications & Accreditations

Educated at Laidlow College, Auckland, I have gone on to achieve qualifications that enable me to be highly effective in my roles as a business advisor, mentor and coach. These include −

Interests

A priority in my life is the volunteer work I do as a Rescue Vessel Master for Coastguard NZ, and my role in training coastguard rescue vessel crew and skippers.

I also delivered practical training up to RYA Yacht Master Level.
